Windows 95 NIC
NOTE: If you are installing the Microsoft Windows 95 operating system for the first time, you must use either the
Windows 95 service release version provided by Dell or its equivalent. Because of the advanced architecture of your
system, some components do not function correctly with Windows 95 versions earlier than Service Release 2.
Windows 95 automatically detects and installs the NIC driver. The following instructions are for reconfiguring the NIC driver on
systems running Windows 95, Service Release 2 or Service Release 2.1. To determine the service release version of your
Windows 95 operating system, click the Start button, point to Settings, and click Control Panel. Double-click the System icon to
access the System Properties window, and click the General tab. If your system version is 4.00.950 B, then your operating system
is Windows 95 Service Release 2 or Service Release 2.1. For Windows 95 Service Release 1 or Windows 95 operating systems
not installed by Dell, the system version is 4.00.950 A and 4.00, respectively.
To connect your system to, and configure it for use on, an Ethernet network, follow these steps:
1. Use the Program Diskette Maker (located in the Dell Accessories folder) to make a diskette copy of the NIC drivers
installed on your hard-disk drive.
2. Verify that the integrated NIC is enabled in the System Setup program and connected to its network.
See " Using the System Setup Program ," for more information.
